() 1.—What do you think of Jason?
—He has ______ me with his good sense of humour.

A.impressed
B.admired
C.reminded
D.warned

A

首先明确各选项含义，A选项impress意为“给……留下深刻印象”，常用搭配impress sb. with sth. 表示“因某事给某人留下深刻印象”；B选项admire意为“钦佩，赞赏”；C选项remind意为“提醒”，常用搭配remind sb. of sth. ；D选项warn意为“警告”，常用搭配warn sb. about/of sth. 。根据题干中“with his good sense of humour”（凭借他良好的幽默感）可知，这里表达的是他凭借幽默感给我留下深刻印象，符合impress sb. with sth. 的用法。

() 2.She is very good at painting. She can paint ______ her father.
A.as better as
B.as well as
C.as good as
D.so well as

B

本题考查同级比较结构。“as...as”结构用于表示两者在某方面相同，中间接形容词或副词的原级。题干中“paint”是动词，需用副词修饰。选项A“as better as”结构错误，因为“better”是比较级；选项D“so well as”通常用于否定句，而本句是肯定句，故排除。选项B“as well as”和选项C“as good as”中，“well”是副词，“good”是形容词，根据语法规则，应选副词“well”。因此，正确答案是B，表示“她和她父亲画得一样好”。

() 3.His friends found ______ to tell him everything that had happened.
A.it necessary
B.that necessary
C.it is necessary
D.necessary

A

在这个句子“His friends found ______ to tell him everything that had happened.”中，我们需要找到一个合适的词或词组来填补空白，使句子语法正确且意思通顺。首先，我们可以根据句子结构判断，这里需要一个形式宾语来代替后面的不定式短语“to tell him everything that had happened”。在英语中，常用“it”作为形式宾语，代替后面的不定式、从句等，以保持句子结构的平衡。然后，我们逐一分析选项：
A. “it necessary”符合“find it + adj. + to do sth.”的结构，其中“it”是形式宾语，代替后面的不定式短语，意思是“他的朋友们觉得有必要告诉他发生的一切”，语法正确且意思通顺。
B. “that necessary”在语法上不正确，因为“that”通常用于引导从句，不能作为形式宾语。
C. “it is necessary”在时态上与主句不一致，主句是过去时，而这个选项是现在时，且在这个结构中不需要“is”。
D. “necessary”单独使用不能作为宾语，需要与“it”结合使用才能构成正确的语法结构。
综上所述，正确答案是A。

() 4.You needn't worry about ______ a meal. I'm going to invite you to a restaurant.
A.to have not
B.not to have
C.not having
D.having not

C

本题主要考查worry about的用法。worry about是一个动词短语，表示“担心”或“担忧”，其中about是介词，后面通常跟名词、代词或动名词形式作宾语。在本题中，worry about后面需要接动名词形式作宾语，即having。而否定形式是在动名词前加not，即not having。选项A和B中的to have是动词不定式形式，不符合worry about的用法；选项D中的having not形式错误，否定词not应该放在动名词having之前。因此，正确答案是C，即not having。

() 5.We should pay attention to ______ the teacher carefully.
A.listen to
B.listening
C.listening to
D.listen

C

pay attention to 中 to 为介词，后接动词 -ing 形式，排除 A、D；listen 为不及物动词，接宾语时需加介词 to，“听老师”为 listen to the teacher，排除 B。

() 6.The doctor asked my father to give up ______ to keep healthy.
A.smoking
B.to smoking
C.smoke
D.to smoke

A

根据题干中的“give up”可知，这里考查的是“give up”的用法，其后应接动名词形式作宾语，表示“放弃做某事”。选项A“smoking”是动名词形式，符合“give up”的用法；选项B“to smoking”结构错误；选项C“smoke”是动词原形；选项D“to smoke”是动词不定式形式，均不符合“give up”的用法。因此，正确答案是A。

三、完形填空
It was Mother's Day. When I woke up that morning, I knew something was 1 in the house. Usually, I am the first to get up. But this morning, I could hear someone else searching around in the kitchen. I heard the sound of glasses and dishes ringing, the fridge door opening and closing, and water running. Things sounded quite 2 .

I was surprised because Bill had 5 made breakfast before. I considered if I should get up and help him. However, I decided to lie back and wait to see what he would cook for me. I smelled eggs burning, and I heard sausages being fried too quickly. He surely was making a 6 in the kitchen!
After a few minutes, I heard my little boy knock at the bedroom door. He came into the room with some sausages and eggs, a hamburger and a glass of milk. The sausages were 7 and the eggs were burnt. This was his first time to cook. I could feel the tears of great 8 coming to my eyes as he put the dish of food on my bed and gave me a kiss. "Happy Mother's Day!" he said.
I ate the meal proudly, 9 it was difficult to make the hard, burnt sausages go down my throat.
Yes, that was many years ago. Now, when Bill calls to wish me well on Mother's Day, the 10 of that morning comes back. We always laugh about it. It has become a special story that we share.
